It was a specific crime against her by somebody that knew her. Then you\u2019ll bring up Josh Shapiro, but you will not bring up that that was a pro-Palestine person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He finished: \u201cThe fact of the matter is the both sides argument not only doesn\u2019t fly, we don\u2019t care.

During <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/greg-gutfeld-charlie-kirk-assassination-backfire-jokes-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">his monologue starting last Friday\u2019s episode of \u201cGutfeld!,\u201d<\/a> the host spoke with a grave face about processing the loss and how the killing would \u201cbackfire.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo why was Charlie assassinated?\u201d Gutfeld posed. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t about his ideas, it is that he was so good at them. He was the best. There was no one like him. This will backfire. Look at the history of those murdered because they were good. MLK Jr.\u2019s dream did not die with him. Or JFK\u2019s. Or Lincoln\u2019s. As much as I hate the song \u2018Imagine,\u2019 it still gets played thousands of times a day around the globe. So their legacy grows, and Charlie\u2019s will as well, beyond his wildest dreams \u2026 He already knew his impact, which will only grow with his passing \u2026 A man whose entire career was built on polite conversation. But that grief now hardens into resolve. If you want to kill an idea, the worst thing you can do is kill the man behind it. Because that gives the idea not just likes, but also wings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a class=\"the-wrap-read-more__image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/greg-gutfeld-charlie-kirk-assassination-backfire-jokes-video\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1757992026_730_c.kirk_.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Charlie Kirk and Greg Gutfeld\"   data-portal-copyright=\"TheWrap\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Greg Gutfeld went off on his \u201cThe Five\u201d co-host Jessica Tarlov over her assessment that political violence is&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":159914,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[49204,88,40958,97338,92],"class_list":{"0":"post-159913","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-charlie-kirk","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-greg-gutfeld","11":"tag-jessica-tarlov","12":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159913","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159913"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159913\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159914"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159913"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159913"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159913"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
